1952 Chevrolet Truck 3100 Rat Rod Classic Truck Antique on 2040-cars
Gadsden, Alabama, United States
|
This 1952 1/2 ton truck had been updated with a 235 straight six from a 1954 1/2 ton truck prior to me buying it a year ago in North Carolina. I had the engine totally rebuilt, cylinders bored, the works, at a machine shop in August of 13. It left there and went to a shop where they installed new clutch, inner and outer cab corners on both sides, new cowl bottoms, welded in new floor board, changed wipers to electric. Truck has been converted to 12v, classic radio with dash mounted speaker, new shocks all way around. Bed has stainless steel strips and hardware, frame is coated in POR-15. New interior trim, cowhide on inside of door! I envisioned as a rat rod, but with a little work, could be a show truck. Drive it anywhere, fun to drive, people like to see it. I have the tailgate, just like the way it looks off, have the original oil bath air cleaner. Also have new splash guard for under the grill, new windshield gasket set and new complete wiring harness. All of this I had planned to put on the truck, but haven't found the time. If you buy the truck; it's yours. The speedometer works sometimes, sometimes not, but everything else works. There is two small holes on side of truck by the running board that I made accidentally putting in bed wood. Can be welded up. I have receipts showing investment totaling a little over $14k. Ask me anything if you have a question. Truck is in Alabama.

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories
Wed, 06 Feb 2013As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.
Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts
Wed, 27 Feb 2013There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
Refreshed 2014 Camaro confirmed for New York debut
Thu, 07 Mar 2013We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks.
Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too.
In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.
